Chapter 157

Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man Novel (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 157 Dickson had been showing off his family’s connection with Mayberry in the rest of the conversations while poking fun at Gerald. It would be unreal if Gerald was not angry at all. At this point in time, he would have really loved to punch Dickson in his face. All Dickson could ever do was to just show off and mock people.

Other than those things, he had no greater purpose. That afternoon’s family gathering was quite awful.

They continued talking after lunch, and soon, it was past noon. Gerald had been awake since early that morning, and he was starting to get exhausted. Amber suddenly shouted, shocking Gerald. “ Dickson, Elena. It’s almost five, and the party is about to start soon! Let’s go get ready now. It’s not nice to be late!” “Right! Yoel Holden organized it, after all. We mustn’t be late!” Dickson said. “Okay, you should get going now. Dickson, please take good care of Amber and Elena!” Ruby said, leaving Gerald out of the conversation deliberately. “Yes, ma’am!” Dickson replied. They went to pick up their cars, and Gerald hopped onto Amber’s Porsche. It was only because Elena insisted. If it wasn’t for her, they would probably not have let Gerald into the car. Elena held onto Gerald’s arm tightly, a gesture to tell him that she was sorry. She never thought they would be so mean to him. She apologized on behalf of her family. Gerald shook his head with a bitter smile on his face. As they were talking, they reached the entrance of Mayberry Beach. “Does Gerald have an entrance ticket?” Dickson wanted to ask that question early on. Still, he waited until they all arrived at the entrance before asking just to embarrass him. “I do have it!” Gerald nodded as he reached into his pocket for the ticket. “You must have gotten it from Elena. Seriously Elena, why are you even so nice to him! Don’t you know? You’re just going to ruin his life if you bring him into our world. Why not just let him live his own life?” Amber complained.

Amber didn’t usually sound like an adult, but now, she was acting like one. There was even a hint of sophistication in the tone. She would usually treat Elena with respect, but she had enough for today. It was the gathering of the wealthy, and everyone there would be really rich. She understood that her sister really loved this Gerald and intended to show him their world. But wouldn’t it hurt his pride after seeing so many rich people inside? “That’s quite enough, Amber. Don’t be a nuisance!” Elena was frustrated. “You two have to stop arguing now, okay. Let’s just go in and have a look, alright? If there’s anything that Gerald is afraid of answering, I’ll answer it for him!” Dickson took advantage of the situation. “Dickson, you’re such a gentleman!” Amber complimented as she rolled her eyes at Gerald. It was only five in the afternoon, yet the beach was already crowded. “Dickson is here!” “Amber, you’re here too! We have already started up the barbeque!”
